Academic A little known fact is that this school actually assesses an academic team. These pencil-pushing athletes elong to one of the best teams in the State and it is the only unbeaten team in the school These pillars of intellect are doing exceedingly well and boast an 8- 0 record Put them in a classroom with another team and they go to work systematically, out-thinking their opponents and often running up margins of victory as high as 150 points. In an academic team meet, both sides are askeci difficult questions on topics such as Advanced Math and Science, English, History and Current Events along with the occa- sional Art, Music, or Sports question Should a team fail to answer its question, the other team gets a chance to Fsteal it by answering correctly their opponents question. The i Warrior 3 confident and seemingly boundless knowledge, coupled with their ag essive answer stealing, has made them the favorites for t e Somerset County championship. All of this schoolis A-Teams have benefited from the guidance of Coach Henry Miller, who says of the team, it' is an electric unit. There are specialists for every subject.
